B Minneapolis Minnesota i the mistake of KEEP THE TESTED SIRE. e Bulls of Proved Worth Should Be Re- tained In Service. The following advice, Wwhich is ap- plicable to other breeds of cattle as well as to Shorthorns, comes from the Shorthorn Brecders' association: “Many inexperienced breeders make going it blindly from year to year in their use of herd bulls. They keep etcrually changing, using one a couple of years and then super- seding him wilh a calf. On the other band, the constructive breeders rely ! mainly on testel sires, mostly quite a bit of uge. Indeed, such breeders have been known to Luy entire herds. which they did not waut. merely to acquire the old bulls at their heads. A Short- horn bull that has proved satisfactory as a getler shculd be kept in service until death or irmpotence ends his use- fulness. When fully matured bulls often get hard to do with and too often for this reason are bundled into the cars and shipped to the shambles. A big loss is sustained each year by such unnecessary and uncalled for sacri- fices. The wisc breeder goes mighty slow with the use of any untried calf until he knows what the youngster can do. “New bLalls must be introduced into every herd, but there is never any oc- casion fo make the change suddenly, dropping one outright and using an- other to all the breeding females. A very little ingenuity will enable the breeder to discover what the chosen one is going to do. It doesn’t make much difference in what herd a bull succeels.

Pew. lowa State college. The college herd of pure bred swine. maintained for instructional purposes, is composed of representatives of the Poland Cbhina, Duroc-Jersey. Cliester White, Hampshire and Berkshire breeds. After the pigs were weaned The Poland China hog originated in Ohio in 1872, and the breed is still a favorite in the corn belt. Poland Chinas are good rustlers, do not re- quire pampering and produce a big percentage of high grade lard and edible meat. They are of moderate bone, and the hams and shoulders are large and well fleshed. The ani- mal shown is a Poland China sow. 1 the spring it was determined that the gilts would be fed on self feeders as soon after weaning as possible. Accordingly about the middle of June forty-eight gilts in one feed lot | with rape pasture, about evenly divid- ed as to the above named breeds, were started according to the self feeder plan. Shorts in one feeder. tankage in another and oilmeal in still another ‘were supplied. Salt was supplied ad libitum also. Shelled corn was fed by ‘hand twice per day. In other words, the corn was limited. It was intended to keep the gilts thrifty. but not too ] fat. About the 1st of October new corn. ‘mostly soft. was.fed instead of old corn. On Oct. 15 these gilts tere sort- | ed, making two bunches, one of twen- ty-one to be kept for the breeding herd of the college, and the second bunch of twenty-seven were intended for sale | purposes. The entire bunch on Oct. 25 averaged in weight 180 pounds. The bunch of twenty-one kept for the col- lege herd averaged in weight 240. Al have been fed the same since division was made. These gilts are thrifty, growthy and not too fat. To date the methods employed have been satisfac- tory. Pneumonia of Calves. In winter calves frequently die of pneumonia. caused by chilling. Keep them in a dry place free from cold drafts to prevent it. Where calves are kept in close, poorly ventilated stables see that doors are not opened permit- ting drafts of very cold air to.blow directly on them. This is probably the most common cause. The following treatment is re ommended: Keep the animal warm and dry, and it is well to keep it blanketed. Feed only fresh warm milk frequently and in small quantities. It should be fed carefully to prevent strangling. Liniments or mustard plasters may be used over the chest. Recovery is usually slow.

Experiments Show That Grimm Is a Profitable Variety. The questions are often asked: *“Why does one - variety of alfalfa stand through the winter better thaa an- other? Why does one variety yteld more? Why is the Grimm variety so handy?" These questions have been given a great deal of study at the Wyoming experiment station during the past five years. In 1909 eight varieties of alfalfa were planted at the same time, at the: same rate, on the same kind of soil. A’ quarter acre of each variety was sown, and the following year another quarter acre of native seed was sown. These varieties have all received the same treatment in respect to cultivation and irrigation, and the plots have been " GRIMM ALTALFA PLANG. studied from year to-year to note the habits of growth, amount of winter killing, yields. and so on. The study of comparisons was begun in 1911, when the vatiéties had all at- tained full maturity and were produc- ing fall crops. Good stands of all va- rieties were obtained the first year. A study of individwal years showed the Turkestan, Sand Lucern, Grimm and Montana seed to. be about equal in yield, none of them showing any win- ter killing the first tivo years. The win- ter of 1912-13 was, however, very se- vere, and much alfalfa was killed all over the state. The spring of 1913 showed various degrees of winter kill- ] ing in all the varieties except the Grimm and the native seed. These.va- rieties, the Sand Lucern amd Turke- stan, have shown no winter killing since; the other varieties have to & slight degree. § The question therefore arises, Has the type of .the plant anything to do with its hardiness? Probakly 1t has. This brings uwp the question, Is the Grimm variety of sufficiently higher value to make it worth while to pay the advanced price for the seed? The study of types is an fmportant one, and the farmer is interested in the onethat will make the amost hay. Wil the Grimm do this? Results show that it does on account of ‘its ‘resistance to winter killing. If there Wwere the shme number of plants tothe acre probably it would mot, but usually more of the plants of the Grimmtand. It.bas-uot, howevef, such a greut ddvantage over some other varieties, comparing the cost of seed and yield per acre. At the Colorado station the Baltte variety has outyieldedl the Grimm. The two varieties are much alike and prob- ably of the same ‘origin. The hiEbite ot} the Grimm, however, commend this type to favor. Its heavy stooling habit § produces finer stems and more leafy hay. The underground shoots and feed- ing roots near the surface’'make it-more hardy and resistant to wiater killing and late spring frost, The Grimm variety seems also more resistant to leaf diseases and is better adapted to dry farm conditions than | most of the other varieties. It:also re- quires less seed to the acre for sowing. Seven or eight pounds to the 'acre are sufficient for irrigated land and half this quantity on the dr; tempt at seed produ made at the station, but it is probable that the Grimm will produce seed as readily as the other varieties. There-, fore there is no reason ‘why it would not pay to sow an acre or two and pro- duce seed for a larger area. This would not be an expensive operation, even at the high cost per pound of Grimm seed.—Country Gentleman, Rhubarb From Seed.
